    James and his team are lovely to work with. They are flexible, arrive on time, are respectful, didn’t make a huge amount of noise and kept everything neat as they worked around the house. James is really knowledgeable and gave us great advice, and we thrilled with the finished product. Thank you for bringing our tired old bungalow back to life!

    We had our roof, gutters, downpipes and woodwork painted to the original colours. Absolutely fantastic outcome. So happy with James and his team.

    We have used James and his team extensively over the past few years and have been exceptionally happy with everything they have done. Prices are reasonable, quality is excellent and work is started and completed on time every time. I cannot recommend SA Metro Painters highly enough.

    James is a master of his craft. The quality of his work is exemplary. He painted my Sandstone villa inside and out in preparation for sale. The transformation was incredible. He is a perfectionist and yet is fast and affordable. I have recommended him to a number of my friends and they have all been very happy with his work thus referring him on to others. Highly recommended.

Painting costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do painters typically charge?
Painting costs depend on the size of the job, the condition of existing surfaces, and whether the work is interior, exterior or both. Jobs requiring significant preparation such as sanding, filling or priming will generally cost more than a straightforward repaint over sound surfaces. Most painters quote per square metre or per room, with exterior work and multi-storey access typically attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do painters need a licence in Australia?
Yes. In most Australian states and territories, painters carrying out domestic work above a certain value must hold a trade-specific licence or registration. Licensing requirements and thresholds vary by jurisdiction — for example, NSW requires a Contractor Licence for painting work. A licensed painter should be able to provide their licence number on request, and you can verify it with your state's building authority.
How should I prepare my home before painters arrive?
Most painters will handle masking, drop sheets and surface preparation as part of the job, but clearing the area of furniture, wall hangings and fragile items beforehand helps the job run smoothly and may reduce your quote. For exterior work, ensure the painter has clear access to all walls and that garden beds or outdoor furniture are moved back. Discuss any specific concerns like lead paint, mould or moisture damage before work begins so the painter can plan accordingly.
Does SA Metro Painters have a verified ABN?
Yes. SA Metro Painters has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
